Trail Improvements at Jefferson Park to Begin

The Fairfax County Park Authority will begin construction on a project
to repair, replace, and resurface approximately 1,200 linear feet of
multi-use asphalt trail at Jefferson District Park. The project will
begin shortly and those who live near or visit the park or use these
trails may be inconvenienced during construction.

Fairfax County Park Authority staff and the contractor, Finley Asphalt
& Sealing, Inc., will be mobilizing on site within the next week to
begin construction. Construction will take approximately two weeks
and access to the site will be from Hyson Lane with construction staging
located within the Jefferson District Park parking lot. This project is
funded through proffer dollars allocated to Jefferson District Park in
2012. Total construction costs are approximately $43,000.

Residents should expect occasional construction traffic and equipment
entering the parking lot and a portion of parking spaces blocked off
during construction. In addition, construction equipment will be
present on the trail during construction. As a safety precaution,
portions of the existing trail system will be intermittently closed to
users during the project and these areas will be posted accordingly.
